15 men incarcerated at Angola started a hunger strike today. They’re trying to get the warden’s attention b/c they’ve all been held in Administrative Segregation (“the dungeon”) at least 1-5 months past the date they were supposed to be released. When I called the warden’s (1/3)
"...our silence will not protect you when fascism comes..." Fascism has been here for descendants of USA chattel slavery since 1619 👇🏽 Louisiana State Penitentiary, the largest prison on Earth, 18,000 acres
This how they living in illinois meanwhile Louisiana State Penitentiary is still hosting state sponsored slavery in 2024..
During his 8 years as AG, Landry called himself “General” & not “Attorney General,” which was obnoxious but half-right b/c he was a shit lawyer. A month after becoming governor, Clancy christens Landry “the Clownfish,” & it fits so perfectly we can go ahead & add it to his…

A federal judge has ruled that medical care at Louisiana’s notorious Angola prison has caused “unspeakable” harm. Laws passed at the behest of Gov. Jeff Landry likely mean more sick and elderly inmates will be dependent on its care. w/ @propublica veritenews.org/2024/03/28/lou…

Worth pointing out that Angola prison in LA, the largest prison in the country, started off as a slave plantation, and continues to use slave labor to this day. Follow the money, and the racism.
7 years ago, I wrote a small piece about a man who was falsely accused of a crime. A few days later, I got an anonymous telling me to look up the woman they called “the evilest white woman on earth.” What happened next is the absolute wildest story you’ll ever hear A thread
.@LAGovJeffLandry sued reporter @aegallo over her request for records about allegations of sexual harassment made against one of his aides who also happens to be Landry's close friend. He also tried to fire the state lawyer who was the whistleblower over the harassment. #lalege
Talk about transparency…the media refuses to include our full statement in their articles, shielding the people of Louisiana from the full picture. See my full statement below: “The public records law is designed to bring transparency to the taxpayer as the government spends…
Jeff Landry sued me in 2021 over a public records request about sexual harassment in the AG's criminal division. We won in court & got the records. Today, a #lalege committee passed a bill with his support that would gut Louisiana's public records law. nola.com/news/politics/…
